A new type of rotating anticathode X-ray generator has been developed, in which the electron beam irradiates the inner surface of a U-shaped Cu anticathode. A high-flux electron beam is focused on the inner surface of the anticathode by optimizing the geometry of the bending magnet. In order to minimize the sizes of the X-ray source, the electron beam is focused in a short distance by the combined function magnets. A shape on the surface of the bending magnet was determined by simulation. The beam trajectories and bending magnet were optimized by the General Particle Tracer(GPT) and Opera-3D code simulation. The result of simulation clearly shows that the bending magnet gap surface angle parameters are important to the beam focused in a short distance. FWHM sizes of the beam from the simulation were obtained to be 0.45mm(horizontal) and 0.05mm(vertical) of which the anticathode with a beam voltage and current were 120kV and 75mA, respectively. The effective brilliance to be about 500kW/mm² simulated predict that with the supposition of a two-dimensional Gaussian distribution. In this paper, the optimization of the focusing magnet and the results of the prototype test are reported.
